Searching for changing-state AGNs in massive datasets -- I: applying deep learning and anomaly detection techniques to find AGNs with anomalous variability behaviours

P. Sánchez-Sáez, H. Lira, L. Martí +14

The classic classification scheme for Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) was recently challenged by the discovery of the so-called changing-state (changing-look) AGNs (CSAGNs). The phys…
